Advantages: Luxury pampering Disadvantages: Not suitable for disabled or small children
A visit to Prospect Cottage is just the answer when you want to be pampered and enjoy magnificent countryside. I have stayed there twice now, once for only one night and once for six nights.
The Cottage
Prospect Cottage is a 17th Century Grade 2 listed building just one hundred yards from the centre of Northleach in the Cotswolds.

Just my kinda thing then! I don't buy newspapers: I've no time for tabloids; The Telegraph is too rabid; The Times gets worse by the day; The Grauniad is too worthy, even for me; The Independent is just plain boring half the time. I get my news fix largely from Jon Snow and the Channel 4 website because I gave up with the BBC long before the current Hutton fiasco. The most interesting aspect of that shameful episode for me was that - at long last - the BBC was even thinking of challenging the establishment. I am interested in current affairs, though, and I do like to know what is going on, who is thinking what and why, and what intelligent people might make of it all.
Enter Prospect.
Current affairs journals tend, like newspapers, to have a political bias. As my views are generally ...
